Our School Mission Statement Childrens Mission Statement History of the School Our Staff Pupil Learning Links Site Facilities Vacancies Gallery Love Protect Educate Nurture According to the Gospel, St Joseph, was called to love, protect, educate and nurture Jesus from birth, through childhood and beyond – ensuring the fulfilment of God's purpose for him.
St Joseph's school is committed to following the example of St Joseph in the following ways: Through a close and effective partnership between home, school parish and wider community we surround all of our children and staff with the love and encouragement they need to enable all to develop to their full potential spiritually, intellectually, socially, physically and emotionally.
We ensure our school is a welcoming, safe and secure environment where every individual is respected for who they are and what they believe. We build strong relationships based on trust, respect and friendships that recognise we are all created in the image and likeness of God.
All have the right to grow and develop and so take full advantage of the gifts and opportunities given to us.
